Sorry to hear.  Wishing you a speedy recovery.  How bad was it?

 It wasnt that bad. First day post op felt like i did 4 hours of crunches, second day the same. Third day occasional mild ache. The doc did it robotically, that in itself is kinda trippy but check out some youtube vids on it.
  What sucks is the layoff from any strenuous activity. 2 weeks of nothing but walking. Then gradually do more, but at this point the gym is 5.5 weeks away.

 Was the hernia itself bad?

I had a double inguinal hernia when I was in my early 20s. Had both repaired. The hardest thing was pooping. Was petrified about pushing, thought I was going to ruin the repair. Pain was mild to moderate the first few days. I felt pretty good after the first week. But didn’t go back to lifting for a while.

Who knows. My doctor said probably from deadlifting and/or squatting but there is no possible way to know exactly what caused it. I was in the shower and noticed a little lump--went to doctor and said I had hernia on both sides but the other side was not pushing through but there was a tear. Had them fixed when I was early 20's and been fine since then.

Lurker, I hope you are a political analyst and person trainer on the cruise ship.

There was no pain prior to noticing the lump?

Zero pain. I could have had it for months and not known. Or maybe it was a new tear. Don’t know. But no pain.
